Umi had been locked up at the hospital for a couple of days. Her spectacular grades had given her the chance to became the youngest intern at the surgery department. She was very proud, it had been her target since the moment she began her studies, but it was really exhausting. Ree and I complained and joked, saying she seemed to have permanently moved to the hospital.

The moment she appeared, we knew something was wrong. Her eyes were puffy and red and she was fighting the tears.
